Implementation of blended teaching (BT) practices is in- creasing rapidly in K-12 classrooms. This trend creates an urgent need for professional development to support BT. An understanding of how experienced teachers implement BT can inform teacher educators and professional development leaders as they develop training to support this practice. We…

The teaching of conceptual understanding is a key objective in the field of science education. But students, on average, do not adequately understand the concepts in a large number of science subjects. This is the case with Ethiopia's students as well. Additionally, conventional instruction is the primary method used by Ethiopian school teachers.…

The scientific literature reveals the impact of applying game-based videos and gamification on undergraduates' learning. This work proposes, within an online context, using these educational strategies to make students the active protagonists of their learning. Therefore, this paper aims to analyze the students' perception of the effectiveness of…

Universities and other research institutions are increasingly providing additional training in research integrity to improve the quality and reliability of research. Various training courses have been developed, with diverse learning goals and content. Despite the importance of training that focuses on moral character and professional virtues,…

Social work programs are facing the need to gain further clarity about how to leverage instructional strategies specific to the course modality (i.e., traditional, hybrid, online hybrid, and fully online). At its heart, this challenge is an analogical transfer problem: practice instructors must adapt what they do in one modality to new modalities…

This study explores how online instructors use different instructional strategies to engage learners, and the active learning indicators that they look for among their students. Additionally, it examines how modality--synchronous versus asynchronous--and instructor learner-centeredness relate to instructional strategy choices. Using a mixed…

In recent years, student behavioral issues have become a growing concern. Physical education (PE) provides ample meaningful opportunities to foster personal and social development. Among all the instructional models in PE, Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility (TPSR) stands out as the most suitable model to facilitate the development of…

This study proposed a framework for Virtual Peer Learning by testing Peer Learning Model to engineering students at a university in Manila during the second semester of school year 2021-2022. Guided Peer Discussions method was applied using Virtual Think-Pair-Share and Virtual Gallery Walk as teaching strategies. Convergent-parallel mixed method…

This study explores the integration of situated and collaborative learning to enhance third-grade students' Chinese reading comprehension and social abilities, addressing a critical gap in primary school education research. Situated learning immerses students in realistic contexts while collaborative learning emphasizes teamwork and interaction.…

Education systems around the world closed schools to cope with the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this current mixed-method study, 181 schoolteachers completed online questionnaires to characterize the pedagogical strategies which they used during Emergency Remote Learning Environment (ERLE) in May 2020. In addition, we conducted…

Career-connected learning is an educational strategy that combines high-quality academic instruction, skill-based learning, and real-world experiences to prepare students with the knowledge and skills that they need to pursue their college and career goals. Career-connected learning can be delivered in a variety of ways, including in core content…

Teachers focused on prevention of academic problems should apply procedures that enhance learning speed, or learning as a function of the time that the learner spends engaged in the intervention(s). Although few researchers evaluate or compare academic interventions using precise measures of learning speed, several strategies for modifying…

Learning analytics (LA) is an emerging area that has had extensive development in higher education in recent years, focused both on the learning process of students within subjects and on monitoring their trajectories in training programmes. However, most of the developments remain in the pilot phase without reaching institutional adoption. This…

Although learner interactions in forums are well-documented, research on instructor engagement strategies in MOOC forums and their impact on forum dynamics is limited. This study offers a distinctive approach by categorizing instructor strategies into four types: communicative, integrative, task-oriented, and non-interventionist. Six prominent…

Internal and external assessment instruments, such as the Vanuatu Standard Test of Achievements (VANSTA) and the Pacific Island Literacy and Numeracy Assessment (PILNA), reveal that mathematics achievements in the Republic of Vanuatu remain below the minimum standard. This study drew on the constructivist grounded theory approach to explore…
